A kind of light spread out from her. And everything changed color. And the world opened out. And a day was good to awaken to. And there were no limits to anything. And the people of the world were good and handsome. And I was not afraid anymore. | John Steinbeck, East of Eden
If you are willing to look at another person's behavior toward you as a reflection of the state of their relationship with themselves rather than a statement about your value as a person, then you will, over a period of time cease to react at all. | Yogi Bhajan
When the world and your mind tells you to settle, you stand up and yell "I am worth more than a timeline!" Because beauty is found in every season, and one does not demand the flowers to bloom until spring has begun, so should it be with your love. Wait and grow, the sun will come in due time, and you will bloom and show the world your worth. | T.B. LaBerge
I think how quickly things have changed for me. But that's the personality of change, isn't it? When it's slow, it's called growth; when it's fast, it's change. And God, how things change: some things, nothings, anythings, everythings...all the things change." | David Arnold, Mosquitoland
